weird thoughts?

Question

does anyone else moments when you feel like you arent ready for a baby and like get a sour feeling about how theres a human literally INSIDE of you? 
im a FTM and baby girl was wanted and like halfway planned(like we werent necessarily trying but not preventing ya know?) and i am so excited to be a mommy. i just know that i was meant to be a mom, but there are times(mostly in bed at night) where i lay there and think about how maybe im not ready. and then i feel like i dont want to grow a baby yet since its just a weird feeling to have baby inside of me? like what am i gonna do when i actually have an infant in my hands?? is this normal? is it just part of pregnancy anxiety?

Answer

I always say you can never actually be “ready” for a baby. No matter how much you prepare, you’re never really ready. This is a MAJOR, life changing event! I feel like it’s completely normal to not feel ready.

Answer

Also a FTM here and I definitely have all these feelings. Like I’m not going to be a good mother/ be good enough. I won’t do things right etc etc. Even though I know I will love my baby unconditionally and do my 110% best. It’s just a huge change and a huge responsibility. Even just growing this miracle inside you in such a huge overwhelming thing to do so I know these feelings are normal. Once baby comes everything will feel right. (Hopefully 😂) ❤️🙏

Answer

I felt this was with my first baby, I talked to my doctor and she suggested a therapist and meds. I was so anxious and depressed ot was hard to enjoy anything. Thank God I got the help I needed and once I gave birth all the fears and anxiety turned into love for my baby. I would suggest to be honest with your loved ones about your feelings and with your doctor. Trust me you arent the only one that has felt this way. I hope it gets better for you❤

Answer

This happened to me today. Mostly a few seconds or minutes of anxiety about a human inside of me and then having to actually birth that human. 😳

Answer

All totally normal. It's just anxiety and worry.b
When baby arrives you will be fine x

Answer

I'm on my third baby and I have to say with my first, I had those feelings even after she was born. And sometimes I have a panic attack thinking, gahhhhhhh! What am I doing?!! I'm too young for this! I don't know what I'm doing!! Bit it gets easier, and you realize, after all the research you do, that nobody really knows what they are doing either, and just striving to do their best!

Answer

Our little girl was 100% planned and I wanted to have a baby for a long time before we started trying but I still have moments recently where I feel like maybe I’m not ready and that I won’t do a good job or I get scared of how she will turn out as she gets older. Talking to my boyfriend about it helps get it off my chest and then I forget about it for a while lol
